Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cutting tools, and particularly relates to an auxiliary positioning device for a long tool shank. Background Art

[0002] Deep hole machining refers to the hole machining process where the hole depth to hole diameter ratio is ≥6. Deep hole machining has always been a pain point in metal cutting machining. One of the disadvantages of deep hole machining is that the tool shank has a small diameter and a long length, and it is easy to generate vibration, ripple, and taper during cutting, which affects the straightness and surface roughness of the deep hole.

[0003] To solve this disadvantage, the following methods are generally adopted in the prior art:

[0004] 1. Enhance the tool rigidity: Select a boring bar with a larger diameter, shorten the overhang of the tool shank, or use a carbide material and a damping tool shank with damping function.

[0005] 2. Strengthen the clamping force: Increase the clamping length and change the clamping structure to improve the clamping stability of the tool shank.

[0006] The above methods not only increase the operation difficulty but also significantly increase the production cost. Summary of the Utility Model

[0050] Embodiment

[0051] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, an auxiliary positioning device for a long tool shank provided by the present utility model includes:

[0052] An outer ring 1, wherein a plurality of ball holes 11 are formed in the inner wall of the outer ring 1, the ball holes 11 are used for accommodating balls 3, and the top edges of the balls 3 protrude from the circumferential surface of the outer ring 1;

[0053] A lining ring 2, which is placed inside the outer ring 1, and a plurality of ball grooves 23 are provided on the circumferential surface of the lining ring 2, the positions of the ball grooves 23 correspond to those of the ball holes 11, and the ball grooves 23 are also used for accommodating the balls 3;

[0054] A tool shank sleeve ring 4, the inner hole 43 of the tool shank sleeve ring 4 is adapted to the long tool shank 6, and the tool shank sleeve ring 4 is connected to the lining ring 2;

[0055] The outer ring 1, the lining ring 2 and the tool shank sleeve ring 4 are concentric;

[0056] The circular contour formed by the top edges of the plurality of balls 3 is adapted to the deep hole.

[0057] As Figure 4 shown, in this application, the tool shank sleeve ring 4 is sleeved on the long tool shank 6. When the long tool shank 6 extends into the deep hole of the workpiece 7, the balls 3 on the outer ring 1 are tangent to the deep hole, and this application abuts against the inner wall of the deep hole. It can not only use the balls 3 to achieve rolling friction and reduce the moving friction force, but also use the outer ring 1, the lining ring 2 and the tool shank sleeve ring 4 to fix the long tool shank 6 at the center of the deep hole, reduce the vibration of the long tool shank 6 during the cutting process, and ensure the quality of the deep hole machining.

[0058] As Figure 6 shown, the lining ring 2 is at least equally divided into four arc pieces 21.

[0059] The lining ring 2 is composed of four or more arc pieces 21, which are easier to splice during installation.

[0060] Based on the above technical solution, a retaining ring 22 is provided at one end of the lining ring 2.

[0061] The retaining ring 22 functions to position the lining ring 2, preventing misalignment between the lining ring 2 and the outer ring 1 and affecting the rotation of the ball 3.

[0062] As Figure 7 shown, the tool shank collar 4 has a split structure. The split structure is a symmetric connection structure on both sides, including an upper ring block 41 and a lower ring block 42. The upper ring block 41 and the lower ring block 42 are connected by fasteners. Specifically, a countersunk hole is provided on the upper ring block 41, and a threaded hole is provided at the position corresponding to the countersunk hole on the lower ring block 42. The upper ring block 41 and the lower ring block 42 are fixedly connected by countersunk head screws.

[0063] The split structure facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the tool shank collar 4.

[0064] Based on the above technical solution, the contact surfaces of the upper ring block 41 and the lower ring block 42 are meshing types, including various structures such as concave-convex type, straight tooth type, or pin type.

[0065] The meshing structure can ensure the alignment of the upper ring block and the lower ring block, improving the position accuracy.

[0066] Based on the above technical solution, the inner hole 43 is a round hole or a square hole.

[0067] The long tool shank 6 is a round rod or a square rod, and the inner hole 43 facilitates the matching use with the long tool shank 6.

[0068] Based on the above technical solution, the tool shank collar 4 and the lining ring 2 are in interference fit, or the tool shank collar 4 and the lining ring 2 are connected by a bearing 5.

[0069] Ensure that the tool shank collar 4, the lining ring 2, and the outer ring 1 are concentric, improving the position accuracy. In this embodiment, preferably, the tool shank collar 4 and the lining ring 2 are connected by a bearing 5. The bearing 5 allows the outer ring 1 to rotate relative to the tool shank collar 4, which is more suitable for machining a rotating workpiece 7.

[0070] Based on the above technical solution, a plurality of grease grooves 12 are further provided on the inner wall of the outer ring 1, and the grease grooves 12 communicate with a plurality of the ball holes 11.

[0071] To improve the rotation effect of the ball 3 and reduce the friction between the ball 3 and the outer ring 1 and the lining ring 2, it is necessary to apply grease to the ball 3 (grease has strong adhesion and a long lubrication time, and grease is preferably used instead of lubricating oil). Among them, the grease groove 12 can accommodate the excess grease, making the ball 3 roll more smoothly (avoiding sucking the ball 3).

[0072] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
